I am a female under 62 by several years - receiving SS disability AND VA disability for multiple progressive medical conditions and now also going through a divorce. He has no disability and works (annual income of $73G). I recently discovered that my VA disability pymt will decrease when divorce final (I'm the military Vet but VA till considers him as my dependent, go figure). Because of that, now I'm wondering if my SS disability pymt will also decrease when divorce is final?

Your SSD shouldnt change. It should be based on your old payscale and contribution. Depending on how long you were married you might be able to collect off of his SS when you reach retirement age.
